Nepal has found its way into the list of top ten travel destinations in the world. The Lonely Planet ‘Best in Travel 2010’ has listed Nepal along with El Salvador, Germany, Greece, Malaysia, Morocco, New Zealand, Portugal, Suriname and the United States as one of the top ten travel destinations, states according to Nepal Tourism Board (NTB).

The lists, released yesterday is the travel company’s fifth in its annual collection of the best places to go and things to do in the year ahead. “This is a collection of destinations and experiences that we rate as the stuff people really should consider for next year. Whatever your own style dictates, you should be able to find inspiration in these destinations,” said Asia-Pacific communications manager Adam Bennett. “They’ll take you from the familiar to the far away, both geographically and culturally, and more than likely have you reaching for your travel bag.”

The top regions are Alsace, France; Bali, Indonesia; Fernando de Noronha, Brazil; Goa, India; Koh Kong Conservation Corridor, Cambodia; Lake Baikal, Russia; Oaxaca, Mexico; Southern Africa; Lake District, England; Southwest Western Australia and the top cities are Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates and others like places in the USA in the west and in Singapore in the Asian region.
